White House: United States ‘Safer’ Under President Obama (Breibart.com) 11 Dec 2015
The Obama administration appears quite confident that the United State iss more safe under President Obama than under President George W. Bush.
“We certainly believe that that’s the case,” White House press secretary Josh Earnest said, when asked in the press briefing today about whether the country is safer under Obama.
Earnest mocked a Gallup poll reporting that Americans have less confidence in the government’s ability to protect them from terrorism – reaching a new low of 55 percent from about 70 percent when Obama took office.
“Let me just start by noting that the Gallup organization is the one that consistently predicted that Mitt Romney would be president of the United States,” he said sarcastically.
Earnest acknowledged that the American people were more concerned about terrorism, pointing out that it was one of the reasons why Obama delivered a televised address from the Oval Office to remind them of his ongoing dedication to fighting terrorism.
He also argued that America was more safe because Obama had built a multi-national coalition to “degrade and destroy” the Islamic State. He tried to explain that Obama had made a “historic investment” in border security.
He argued that Republicans had made the country less safe by blocking an immigration reform bill in Congress.
“There would have been even an more substantial investment had Republicans not succeeded in blocking the passage of comprehensive immigration reform,” Earnest said.
He also argued that Obama had lowered the number of troops serving in Afghanistan and Iraq, making American more safe.
“The fact that there aren’t, when you combine the numbers … there aren’t more than 150,000 troops on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan, I think is an indication that our priorities are oriented in a direction that better reflects our national security interests,” said Earnest.

To be fair, Gallup was only counting legal voters who were still breathing. An easy mistake for anyone to make.
U.S. Intel says ISIS may have a US passport machine. Which means ISIS has a US passport machine. But not to worry.
"Gay schlafen, kinder" as my Aunt Rose used to say.
Of course, we're safe. Those Moslems wouldn't dream of harming Americans.Barry knows his coreligionists.

Earnest keeps saying that, someone is going to start investigating.
Speaking of kinder, I've got something like 36 or so kindersurprises from Germany actually so Kinder Überraschungs and I must say they are too disgusting to digest. Wrong to put that chocolate in your body. And it is not delicious besides. In nowise satisfactory.
The waxiest milk chocolate on the planet and most banal fake vanilla chocolate layer painted on that is 100% unnatural ingredients. Horrible, horrible candy from the people who criticize American taste for Hershey's chocolate at the slightest provocation and who grew up on this shit and hold it in high affection. Pure shit.
Children can not know the difference between bad and good chocolate. It's a crime to have this be their introduction to chocolate. No wonder they all flip so dramatically and so vociferously to seriously bitter dark chocolate, then lord over everyone for their unrefined naïve chocolate taste. Reformed smoker. Born again Christian. Trailer park to White House like Clinton. I meant to say cabin and Lincoln but those other things came out. I mean you just get real snooty, you know what I mean?
Sure, Lincoln was snooty. He fits this description of starting at lousy chocolate and growing to refined overlording chocolate taste. From cabin to lawyer to white house to fancy-pants top hat high self-regarding chocolate eater he'll tear apart the whole country to install his opinion. Just like Obama.
Well let me tell you something: You can take the Obama out of Hawaii but you cannot take the Kindersurprise shit chocolate out of the Obama. Let that sink in.
I got to get rid of this stuff. Do you think I'm bullshitting? Do you want to see what I'm on about? Okay. It looks like 24, not 36.
That's 24 too many shit chocolate eggs. The surprises are shit too.
The problem is, children will love these because children are stupid. Beautiful but stupid. Potentially brilliant but presently stupid. And the Lord instructed me to stop contributing to the delinquency of minorities unless they're of their seniority, then go ahead and give the bums a beer directly out of your backpack, what the heck, you get free drinks all the time.
I've got to get rid of them. Kids will love them, hopefully they'll outgrow them gracefully and the horror will fade to remote memory.
Does Blacknochio's nose grow longer or wider?
